Sexual dimorphism in body weight, fat distribution, and metabolic disease has been attributed largely to differential effects of male and female gonadal hormones. Here, we report that the number of X chromosomes within cells also contributes to these sex differences. We employed a unique mouse model...
between males and females that may make an important contribution to GMV is the different pattern of activation of X chromosomes across cells in females (mosaic inactivation of one the two X chromosomes across cells) vs males (consistent activation of a single X chromosome in all cells). In...

We performed a comparative analysis of 16 XX DSD and 30 control female dogs, using FISH and MLPA approaches. Our study was focused on a region harboringSOX9and a region orthologous to the human RevSex (CanRevSex), which was located byin silicoanalysis downstream ofSOX9. Two highly ...
Chromosome number and sex-determining mechanism in forty-seven species of Indian spiders The haploid number of chromosomes inStegodyphus sarasinorum (Eresidae) andUloborus plumipes (Uloboridae) is thirteen (11+X1X2) and ten (8+X1X2) respectively. The sex-chromosomes are of equal size in th...
Sequence of the supernumerary B chromosome of maize provides insight into its drive mechanism and evolution B chromosomes are enigmatic elements in thousands of plant and animal genomes that persist in populations despite being nonessential. They circumvent the l... N Blavet,H Yang,H Su,... - ...
aestiva , submitted to cytogenetic analysis presented a diploid chromosome number of 2n=70 (20M+50m). With the C-banding pattern, the cells of female speciments showed an almost totally heterochromatic W chromosome. No chromosome differences were observed in the two species studied....
